  • what is this music?

  • I bet the sound is not coming out of Amiga... :-)

  • reminds me of Babylon 5!

  • OK, some weird trivia (it's 3:30am, and I'm a bit bored) - the first Video Toaster prototype was built by Brad Carvey, who is Dana Carvey's brother (Garth, from Wayne's World).

    The character of Garth was loosely based on Brad. You can see Garth wearing a Video Toaster t-shirt in Wayne's World 2.

    That is all. :)

    There sure are some weird videos on YT nowadays...

  • Its now twenty years that came out and still is it been using around the world....thats is amazing!

  • @tanpal333 Fantastic machine I still have an operational A4000/040 and a A500 with a 50mb HD and 4Mb FastRam. Does anyone know where I can get a PSU for a GVP HD, the one that slid on the left hand side of the A500???

  • I remember that early episodes of Babylon 5 were created using the Video Toaster and a bank of high powered Amiga 3000's running on a network rendering individual frames. Sadly it was all replaced around season 3 as I remember, but it was still impressive for the time. I loved the Amiga. by far the best home computer in the 80s and early 90s. If only it had a midi port, the Atari ST would have been completely blown away!

  • could do more than windows movie maker

  • @rednight2476 My comment was a stab at the PC. I know windows sucks compared to AmigaOS.

    I miss are the screens, MCP, Assign command.....

  • @Superbatron The Amiga's greatest strength as well as it's Achilles heel is that it worked with analogue video. Most computers (including PCs) use frame buffers for video. The audio equivalent is like comparing a sampler to an analogue synthesizer. The Amiga is the synth, the PC is the sampler.

    The Video Toaster is a software controlled hardware solution that takes advantage of the Amiga's analogue video system. (and it came with Light Wave)
